This is one of many short video segments which will be added to the Digital Tipping Point (DTP) archive.

One reason for his popularity could be his very casual and friendly demeanor, which might be seen as unusual among engineers, who are often known for being prickly. Brian's congenial manner certainly comes across in these interviews, which was shot at his house in California during a meeting of Apache technicians from all over the world who had come to Brian's house for the purpose of doing drudge maintenance work on Apache infrastructure.
